Giveaway Tuesday: Designer dog beds from PetDreams.com!

August 7, 2012 by Dr. V

Brody’s dog bed was turning into a sad and sorry thing, a tattered vestige that much like Linus’s blanket, he didn’t want to part with despite its obvious state of despair. I’d try to hide it, and he would go drag it out of the closet and back to the bedroom. Every time I thought about throwing it out, he’d follow me with such a concerned look that I couldn’t bring myself to toss it, despite it being a bed only in the most academic of senses by this point.

So when PetDreams.com, a manufacturer of really nice dog beds, offered me a bed to review in conjunction with a giveaway, I said, “Great!” As much as I like doing giveaways for you all, I have been backing off on product reviews because we just don’t need much at this point. But dog beds, well, there is something we could use.

I was so excited when the bed arrived: a sage green plush Ortho-Bliss memory foam bed. When he was younger and still sleeping in his crate, Brody got a small hygroma from lying on a crate pad that wasn’t quite plush enough; it was shortly after that we switched to fluffier beds. Compared to his current bed, this is a Cadillac.

I actually sat on it for a few minutes myself to see if it was really as dense and springy as it felt. It actually feels just like a Tempur-Pedic and is much heavier than the usual egg shell pads I’ve felt in the past. Considering how much time Brody’s spent sprawled out on my memory foam mattress, I figured, this might finally be the ticket to getting him away from that old bed.

He certainly seemed enthused. He immediately came over to investigate as I spread it out in the living room.

Koa, whose bed is still in working order due to her propensity to just flop on the carpet next to the kids’ beds, seemed disinterested. That is, until she got a closer look. Did someone say memory foam?

Poor Brody never had a chance. Old labs win every time. Guess this means I have to buy another.

But you, lucky readers, have not one but TWO chances to win your very own awesome bed that will inspire envy from the household. Pet Dreams is offering two winners the choice of the following best sellers from the site:

    Look at those sad eyes on Koa! She knows what works on you, doesn’t she? ๐Ÿ™‚

    What a look Koa is giving you! Love the color of the pet bed, very cute!

    August 7, 2012 at 4:49 am

    Looks so comfy! I am betting my cats would all pile on. They also have a sad old bed that I don’t have the heart to toss. keep covering it with a towel, but that will only last but so much longer…. ๐Ÿ™‚

    My dachshund might be small but he can dominate a dog bed. These look incredible!

  5. Georgia Jewel says

    August 7, 2012 at 5:27 am

    Shorty the labgi would love this.

  6. Rwan says

    August 7, 2012 at 5:47 am

    Definitely for Enzo. The other dogs keep stealing the beds we buy for him. Poor guy!

    I’m torn between keeping this for my cats or giving it to a friend’s dog if I win.

  8. Rose D. says

    August 7, 2012 at 6:12 am

    This would be for my baby Eesa cat! Her bed is getting nasty…

  9. Steph says

    August 7, 2012 at 6:14 am

    Oh, definitely for my Reno. He’s almost 10 and showing signs of sore joints.

  10. heather t says

    August 7, 2012 at 6:23 am

    Definitely a bumper bed for one of my many cats, they’re always a bed or two short!

  11. Amy Orvin says

    August 7, 2012 at 7:13 am

    My dogs, Toby and Sushi. If the cats wanna sleep they can too.

    My 11 year old Beagle could definitely use some memory foam in her bed!

  13. Connie Estes says

    August 7, 2012 at 7:32 am

    Love them!

  14. Connie Estes says

    August 7, 2012 at 7:32 am

    My little PW would love that!

  15. Leigh says

    for my labrador retriever

  17. Marilyn Auman says

    August 7, 2012 at 8:13 am

    My Morkie Chase would love this. He always wants to sleep on my bed…for a while i thought he just wanted to be close to us so I got a bassinet type bed so he could be near us…he wants no part of that. Now I think it is our matress he wants….hmmmm. BTW…..little dogs can be bed hogs too.

  18. Katie says

    August 7, 2012 at 8:15 am

    Bailey, our 9-year old lab-greyhound, would love a bed!

  19. Cappy says

    August 7, 2012 at 8:19 am

    Ginger, my new-to-me failed-duck-dog lab would get it. She always wants the couch. I want the couch. It’s an issue. grin

  20. Shelley P says

    August 7, 2012 at 8:43 am

    This would be for my 13 yr old spaniel mix, Kandy.

  21. Kellee says

    August 7, 2012 at 9:23 am

    My senior Beagle Sydney has bouts of immobilization from the onset of Inveterbral Disc Disease. You never know when or what brings it on. She can just jump on the couch and then she cant move for a day. We actually just purchased a memory foam bed for ourselves to make her more comfy because she sleeps with us. We have stairs up to our bed for her. But I’d sure like to give her a comfy bed that she can call her own, thats moveable to the living room so she can lie on it on the floor and doesnt want to jump up on the couch!

  22. Nubia R-B says

    August 7, 2012 at 9:43 am

    We would love to win the L PLUSH BLUE CRATEWEAR for our Griffen monster! Make him all nice and cozy ๐Ÿ˜€

  23. Mprofant60 says

    August 7, 2012 at 9:51 am

    We would drool (okay Kobe would, I probably wouldn’t) over the XL purple bumper bed. Kobe is a 13 yr old Golden Retriever who has arthritis. I adopted him two years ago when his previous owner was forced to give him up. My tile floor now have pieces of carpet taped over it all for his comfort, but that is up to his regal standards. THIS bed definitely meets his high standards…

  24. TaxiLab says

    August 7, 2012 at 10:18 am

    I have five dogs, but Suzy, the oldest at 12, would be the winner! Like you said, old dogs win every time ๐Ÿ™‚

  25. Ju P. says

    August 7, 2012 at 10:58 am

    This bed would be for Dumpling, our adopted shih tzu mix. We never got him a dog bed because he is happy plopping down and sleeping anywhere (on the couch, floor, in the shower!). I think he would appreciate having a bed all to himself!

  26. Amanda says

    August 7, 2012 at 12:48 pm

    My red bone hound “Puppy” would love to have this. And I would love for him to give me my side of the bed back! ๐Ÿ™‚

  27. Anita Schack Cheesman says

    August 7, 2012 at 1:21 pm

    My flat coat puppy, Porter, would love to have a new bed. But I bet his older terrier sister will over take it like Koa did.

  28. StephB says

    August 7, 2012 at 1:25 pm

    Riker, my Springer Spaniel, would love a bed like that! He’s always looking for the squishiest place to crash.

  29. Connie KittyBlog says

    August 7, 2012 at 1:53 pm

    I bet I could fit a lot of foster kittens on one of those beds!

  30. Joanne Gregory says

    August 7, 2012 at 2:23 pm

    This bed would be for my border collie Jed.

  31. Kelly Ann T. says

    This bed would be for our newly adopted dog, Artie.

  32. Kamnel says

    August 7, 2012 at 2:37 pm

    Totally for our girl Nala who is having a rough go of it. The C-word has been thrown around and it kills me – I would love to have something for her to (hopefully) celebrate her health.

    August 7, 2012 at 2:51 pm

    The second mention of Petdreams just links back to this site, shouldn’t it link back to Petdreams.com?

    I wonder if my cat would like this better than he likes my pillow…

    • Dr. V says

      August 7, 2012 at 3:48 pm

      Thank you for letting me know the link was broken! I appreciate it.

  34. Terrah says

    August 7, 2012 at 3:43 pm

    oooh! I have four elder dogs that would freaking love this bed, but I am thinking my little pitbull Sally would probably be the one who hogs it.

  35. Terrah says

    August 7, 2012 at 3:45 pm

    I have 7 dogs, so anyone one of them would be super happy to get it! but my chocolate lab ansli’s birthday is this month, so it would be extra special for her.

  36. Openheartscrub says

    August 7, 2012 at 3:45 pm

    My Cane Corso puppy, Enzo would LOVE this!! He needs a bed now! !

  37. Christine says

    Majestic Magellan is always game for an ortho bed ๐Ÿ™‚

  38. Kimba says

    August 7, 2012 at 3:58 pm

    Hm… Banner and Fly are the “old-timers” around here, they each have a bed, so this one would be for the “new guy” Rascal!

  39. GR Kailey's Mom says

    August 7, 2012 at 4:07 pm

    Kailey has outgrown her old bumper bed so an XL would be DOGtastic.

  40. Lindsay says

    August 7, 2012 at 4:16 pm

    I have a jrt that would LOVE a new bed! Hers is beyond repair =

  41. Karen B. says

    August 7, 2012 at 4:26 pm

    My standard Poodle Finn would love a new bed since his bratty little brother Theo ripped the stuffing out of his old bed.

  42. Carrie F says

    August 7, 2012 at 4:38 pm

    My chocolate Lab Lily would love a new bad as she recently dirtied her beautiful bagel-bed and I don’t have the guts to try to wash it properly!

  43. irene says

    August 7, 2012 at 4:49 pm

    My golden retriever, Eli, would love a new bed. I would of course need to Scotch-Gard it, since we are still working on the submissive urination…

  44. Heather says

    August 7, 2012 at 5:09 pm

    I’d donate it to my friend with two senior Italian Greyhounds. she owns a pet shop and rescues and rehomes about 300 cats and about 50 dogs a year out of her own pocket. her menagerie deserve a treat!

  45. Elizabeth Andrews says

    August 7, 2012 at 5:24 pm

    My elderly Lab Caley would LOVE this..

  46. Susan Montgomery says

    August 7, 2012 at 6:49 pm

    Well, Finn would love for Annora to have one, so he can get HIS bed back.

  47. Molly says

    August 7, 2012 at 6:52 pm

    My 15 year old lab Ellie would LOVE this bed!

  48. Peggyfrezon says

    August 7, 2012 at 7:49 pm

    Our newly adopted 11 year old golden retriever would love this bed, and he’d share it with Kelly too!

  49. Ekkirk says

    August 7, 2012 at 7:53 pm

    This would be for my lab. She loves my bed but hogs it – about time for a bed of her own that she actually likes!

  50. Tabitha Pyle says

    August 7, 2012 at 7:58 pm

    for our german shep!

  51. Cjordan6893 says

    August 7, 2012 at 8:04 pm

    Our #5 Rescue poochie, Pearl. She is a black lab bull terrier mix who has a propensity for pushing you out of your bed when she takes it over. She is a Big Lovie!

  52. V Grever says

    August 7, 2012 at 8:18 pm

    Our yellow lab Wrigley really needs his own bed!

  53. Anonymous says

    August 7, 2012 at 8:21 pm

    This bed would be for my corgis. Luna would probably claim it, which means Twinkie would get the old bed.

  54. Karla Gutierrez-Pugh says

    August 7, 2012 at 8:47 pm

    Casey would love one of these awesome beds.

  55. Sue W. says

    August 7, 2012 at 9:16 pm

    Mocha sleeps on the bed with us so she probably would turn up her nose. But Joe? Joe would love it!

  56. Michelle Spayde says

    August 7, 2012 at 10:12 pm

    Oh my goodness, I’d give Koa just about anything with those eyes!

    This would be for my Pomeranian, Sarah, but she’d probably have to wait until the cats checked it out first.

  57. Martha Sobolow says

    August 7, 2012 at 10:46 pm

    Not sure which of my dogs would get this but I’m guessing the older dog, Pita, who is definitely the alpha in the family. Plus she could use a new bed.

  58. Meighen Heyburn says

    August 8, 2012 at 5:42 am

    Raj has needed a new bed for some time. I made him a couple but didn’t put enough stuffing in them. I think I’ve convinced my dad to make a wooden frame to hold his bed, but want a nice bed to put in the frame. This would be just the ticket!

  59. Carenleetx says

    August 8, 2012 at 6:27 am

    Our 10 yr old Yellow Lab, Famous Amos, with his poor hips would love a bed. Haven’t beed able to find a good quality with lots of padding at any stores we have visited.

  60. Phifis1234 says

    August 8, 2012 at 7:01 am

    This make me want a puppy… But……………cannot do it. Just have to drool over all the post and play with the ones that are around me…

    They give unconditional love ALL THE TIME.

    Lucky are you if you have a pet.

  61. Avrora Davidovna says

    August 8, 2012 at 9:50 am

    My dog Martha would love this bed!

  62. Susan says

    August 8, 2012 at 9:50 am

    Tela, our golden/lab mix, needs a bed! She had one when she was little, but she ate most of it. So we decided not to get her a new one until she was older and less likely to eat it. She’s 14 months now and I THINK she’s old enough to not eat the whole thing! The cratewear are beautiful, but Tela just uses her crate mat as a pillow. The purple bumper bed has her name written all over it! And, it matches her purple collar. ๐Ÿ™‚

  63. Jackie says

    August 8, 2012 at 11:32 am

    The bed would be for my puggle, Frodo, but his cat Charlie has been known to take over favorite sleeping spots…

  64. Pamela says

    August 8, 2012 at 11:32 am

    My husband and I need the Large Purple Bumper Bed. Why? Because our Golden, Honey, is a sprawler. Which means she sleeps in her crate in our bedroom. Which means we can’t open our dresser drawers because there’s no room for the crate.

    If Honey had such a nice bed, she’d probably enjoy it without being crated. And we’d have more room to move. ๐Ÿ™‚

  65. Crystal Clark says

    August 8, 2012 at 4:47 pm

    I would love this bed for my best friends lab! She is 11 years old and really battling arthritis lately. She spent a week at our place and we have that same green memory foam bed and she loved it. I would love to be able to surprise her and her achey joints with her very own.

  66. Crystal Clark says
